Access beyond end of skb is officially allowed, within 16 bytes in <= 2.2, withing 64 bytes in >=2.4. Moreover, it is not only allowed but highly recommended, when this can ease coding. > It's time to fix csum_partial(). Well, not depending on wrong accent put by you, the change is not useless.

Thread is went to area straight orthogonal to TSO, csum_partial is not used with TSO at all. :-) - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
